Cody Parkey missed both field goal attempts while converting just two-of-four extra points Sunday in the Bears’ Week 10 win over the Lions.

It was a disastrous showing for Parkey, who came up empty on both of his field goal tries including a gimme from 34 yards out in the third quarter. He also clanked a 41-yard attempt while missing the mark on two of his PATs. Parkey seems to have picked up a pretty bad case of the yips. Sunday was the type of nightmare outing that usually sends a kicker packing, so it will be interesting to see if the 26-year-old is able to retain his roster spot come Monday. Nov 11 - 5:55 PM

Bears signed K Cody Parkey, formerly of the Dolphins.

It's a much-needed upgrade for the Bears, who struggled with inconsistency at kicker last year. Parkey is coming off a career year in Miami that saw him convert 91.3 percent of his attempts with a long of 54 yards. Undrafted out of Auburn in 2014, this will be Parkey's fourth team in as many years. Mar 13 - 12:29 PM

The Bears cycled through multiple kickers last season, including Mike Nugent, Connor Barth, and Cairo Santos. They'd like to stabilize the position with Parkey. Parkey went 21-of-23 on field goals for Miami last season. Mar 12 - 11:22 PM

Parkey could not beat out Zane Gonzalez in Cleveland, but the Dolphins apparently see him as a better option than Andrew Franks. Franks missed a field goal this preseason, but he was perfect on 11 extra point attempts. Parkey was 2-for-2 on field goal attempts and 3-for-3 on PATs. Sun, Sep 3, 2017 12:58:00 PM

Cunningham's visit to the Saints was enough to spur the Bears into action, retaining their core special teamer. Cunningham, 28 in July, will compete for Chicago's No. 3 running back job behind Jordan Howard and Tarik Cohen.

A-Rob was actually the Bears' leading receiver, but it did not amount to much in a sludgy affair with the Pack. Robinson could see a nice dose of Richard Sherman in Week 16, but the 49ers' secondary is an attackable fantasy unit.

Chicago promoted RB Taquan Mizzell up to the active roster in a corresponding move. Long was carted off the field against the Jets Sunday. His initial diagnosis was a 6-8 week absence, so this move isn't too shocking. Bryan Witzmann is expected to replace him for the rest of the season.
